Pharmacists improvise treatments amid Gaza medical shortages
Original: Pharmacists improvise medical treatments amid Israel-Gaza conflict
Pharmacists in the Gaza Strip are improvising medical treatments as the Israel-Gaza conflict leaves hospitals and pharmacies short of essential supplies. With deliveries of medicines and equipment disrupted by the fighting, health workers are compounding or substituting drugs and adapting available materials to keep treating the wounded and sick. The report highlights the strain on Gaza's health system, which aid agencies warn is close to collapse amid ongoing hostilities and blocked humanitarian access.
Why now: The conflict is causing severe medicine shortages, forcing health workers to improvise care and drawing international attention to Gaza's humanitarian crisis.
